[Q] How to get into stock recovery? - HTC Sensation

Can someone tell me how to get into the stock recovery?

Power up in to H-boot (power + volume down) and choose recovery from there. It could be power + volume up, can't remember 100%
Why do you need stock recovery? nothing interesting there as far as I could tell....

I Tried... I hit Recovery from Bootloader and all I got was a Triangle with Exclamation piont. Had to pull battery and power on.

Press volume up + power together in recovery to see options.

Do you meen press volume up and power when your in the bootloader? I could not get into stock recovery from bootloader.

No. When you're in bootloader, scroll down to recovery using volume keys and select it using power button. Phone will reboot into recovery. Then, while you are seeing pic of a phone with exclamation point, press volume up and power button simultaneously to show text.

That is the stock recovery. Hold power and press vol up (I think, been a while since I've used it) to get the menu.

You should flash a recovery first, man.....if I understand the problem correctly

Recovery without ROM Manager?

Has anyone discovered a way to enter recovery without using ROM Manager? Like on other phones, we can hold down the volume and power buttons and it'll do it, but that only resets the G2x. Other options? All Google Apps were erased from stock when my phone crashed, so I have no way to restore the stock I have saved on my SD card.
Did you use NVFlash to flash CWM? If so, then you can indeed boot into recovery by holding the volume down and power buttons simultaneously. Just hold them for about 10 to 15 seconds and it should boot into recovery and not factory reset your phone.

Booting into ClockworkMod Recovery
Power off your phone.
Hold Vol Down + Power.
Keep holding them, as soon as you see "ANDROID" in Green with the new boot logo let go of the buttons.

Yeah, I found it out the hard way, but it worked eventually! I wish I would have tried that the first time this happened to me. Thanks

[Q] HTC Wildfire S keeps restarting

I upgraded my ROM from 1.3x to 2.1x using goldcard. After i ran the RUU, it said that the phone update went successful and now the phone just keeps turning on and off without even letting me go to hboot. Please help??
if u have nandroid back up just try to restore, if u dont re flash your rom just make sure that you wipe sytem, wipe cache and try to restore factory settings on the recovery menu just to make sure.
how can i wipe the cache and files, my phone does not even start up the hboot, pc could not even detect my phone. please help.
access recovery menu by pressing volume up + home button + power on at the same time hold it until your phone boots up, then release power button when the phone power up but keep pressing volume up + home button until it reaches recovery menu if it still doesn't work tell me we still have ways for that.

Just confused, pressing "home button" included? also afaik its volume down+Power button.
Also, is recovery menu available even if you havent install CWM? i know its needs debugging to install CWM.

sorry "tol" kinda sleepy when i posted this, your right its volume down+Power, if the phone is already rooted there is a recovery menu already but not CWM, but you can install CWM using ODIN just find a CWM tar.md5 file so you can install this using odin.
its not working. i cannot get to recovery by pressing volume key + power key. any other way to do that?
Maybe your phone already bricked. Jtag will help you to resurrect your phone.

try this
try to force the download mode by :
1) remove the battery
2) hold down the volume down button
3) plug usb
4) put battery back
5) wait till you see the download mode screen
6) use odin to restore your original kernel/modem/firmware
Odin back to stock rom with stock recovery.. Then flash cwm over stock one
Just to make sure you are holding power and both volume buttons and letting go of power after logo screen

flashing a rom doesnt muck up recovery, power down phone, no usb cable plugged in, hold down both volume buttons +-, then hold power button until first logo screen appears, let go of power button while still holding down both volume buttons +- for 1 or 2 more sec, then release volume keys

how to use TWRP

just rooted my one x
followed the steps here to install TWRP recover
but what i cant figure out is how to use it exactly.. from the project page it looks to be an app
and yes i am new to this **** lol
you can go to recovery using bootloader ( power off and press power +vol down ).. or use below command through adb ( device connected to pc ) - adb reboot recovery
Not good if you think custom recovery is just some app. You should do research and learn the importance and usage of custom reocvery.

im new to rooting too. i also did the above but i thought it was (volume up + home button+ power button= recovery mode) ?
No, the correct combo is volume down + power to get to the bootloader, then select recovery from the menu (using the volume keys to move the cursor and the power key to select).

First, before you do anything, read about what TWRP is and maybe watch some videos about the features or something so you don't come back with a formatted sdcard and no idea what to do

It seems that you are getting your information from the wrong source. That is the completely wrong button combo, and keep in mind that every Android device has different button combos.
On this device, its power+vol down (release power after a few seconds, but keep holding vol down until the white screen comes up) to get into bootloader. From bootloader, select recovery. There is no button combo to boot directly into recovery.
Don't follow directions for other devices.

HTC ONE S boot up to htc logo

hey i installed Viper 3.2 five hours ago.
After restart the homescreen was black so i tried a new restart.
Now i can only see the "Viper One S" screen and can't do anything.
power button don't work.. sometimes the phone vibrate 2 times.. can some1 help me? THX
did you wipe everything before flashing the new rom?
are you s-on or s-off? if you are s-on did you flash the kernel (boot.img) via fastboot?
did the softkeys start blinking if you push and hold the power button? if yes keep pushing it and hold the volume down button till your phone boots into the bootloader. from there on you can either flash the kernel or install a different rom via your recovery or if nothing else works you can run a ruu.
